Pros

-People are friendly (even while they violate trust, agreements, and laws) Most people are passionate about the company (even while they are unsatisfied and underpaid) You and your family & friends get discounts on NI equipment if that is your thing Work-life balance is ok if you want it to be. Nobody will stop you from overworking yourself, but also nobody will complain if employees follow sane working hours.

Cons

There is no clear business strategy and the company direction change drastically every couple of months Conflicts are not resolved openly and deteriorate into terrible politics HR calls their violation of employment contracts and employment law "mistakes in communication on their part", without fixing the legal issues Engineering management is friendly but passive Processes and culture are supposed to be agile but are in fact rigid and way too complicated. The supposed agility just adds an extra layer of messiness and uncertainty to the crusty and hidebound bureaucracy underneath While there is some recent lip-service to diversity, there has not been a single action taken during my entire tenure at the company to actually improve the situation for underrepresented groups in the company (i.e. everyone who is not a white dude in their early 30s)
